Local users can unlock the screen, but only if /etc/libnss-

To post a comment you must log in.
Making /etc/ldap/ldap.conf also world readable fixes this problem.
But this still means that anyone can see the password to connect to the ldap-server.
Can't this be fixed by making gnome-screensaver use nscd or something. How does sudo and others take care of this?
